THE LATINO VERSION OF "THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS"

'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the casa, Not a creature was stirring Caramba! Que pasa? Los niños were tucked away in their camas, Some in long underwear, some in pijamas,

While hanging their stockings with mucho cuidado In hopes that old Santa would feel obligado To bring all the children, both buenos and malos, A nice batch of dulces and other regalos.

Outside in the yard there arose such a grito That I jumped to my feet like a frightened cabrito. I ran to the window and looked out afuera, And who in the world do you think quien era?

Saint Nick in a sleigh with a big red sombrero Came dashing along like a crazy bombero. And pulling his sleigh instead of venados Were eight little burros approaching volados.

I watched as they came and this quaint little hombre Was shouting and whistling and calling by nombre: "Ay Pancho, ay Pepe, ay Cuco, ay Beto, Ay Chato, ay Chopo, Macuco, y Nieto!"

Then standing erect with his hands on his pecho He flew to the top of our very own techo. With his round little belly like a bowl of jalea, He struggled to squeeze down our old chimenea,

Then huffing and puffing at last in our sala, With soot smeared all over his red suit de gala, He filled all the stockings with lovely regalos For none of the niños had been very malos.

Then chuckling aloud, seeming very contento, He turned like a flash and was gone like the viento. And I heard him exclaim, and this is verdad, Merry Christmas to all, and Feliz Navidad!
